Humorous Anecdotes From Folklore of the Family and Friends

A collage of light sketches and quips about health vanity and speech. A Maine visitor requests courage from Lincoln with a joke about a hand shake. Mrs Giles contemplates a husband’s voice, while a Danbury clerk handles soda water with a joke about money and sugar. A newlywed misread umbrella scene amuses, and vegetarian jokes compare dietary habits to animal traits with a Harvard reply.
